This poor neglected blog. I was hoping its tenth anniversary year would be a little more interesting than it has been, and then maybe retire it at ten years triumphantly, or reboot or something. Instead it is sort of just going out with a whimper.
My iMac piled up on me- just over a year after I got it. Lucky for me I got the extendo care warranty and I'm bringing it in Friday to get it fixed up. I lost a few files, nothing too critical though- not only do I have a 1 terabyte backup hard drive (AirPort Extreme, though of course I haven't backed up in a while)- but my photos have double and triple backup with Flickr and my camera card itself, so I think I lost a few photos that didn't make the cut to Flickr or keeping it on the card, but that's alright. Lost some Game of Thrones episodes, which are replaceable. iTunes downloads are all free to redownload and there's the iCloud and all that. So really, this is all actually a good thing as I have had nothing but trouble with the iMac since I installed Lion and hopefully the new hard drive and all that will just run smoother.
